One of my first thoughts about joining the blog tour for AMB was to find pictures of actual Mississippi license plates. I liked how this plate represented Mississippi’s forestry with the pine trees, the coast with the water at the bottom of the plate, and the magnolia, the state flower.
So I proceeded to make a trial block and ended up with this, “Go Mississippi.” You can see my process HERE.
Then I simplified the block and made “Go Mississippi II” using the AMB fabrics.
I wanted to try a third block, something completely different. Different colors and different style. So I used this license plate for inspiration.
I still liked the idea of using the pines, magnolia, and coast line but I liked the periwinkle background to this plate. So …. here is
“Go Mississippi III”
And did you know that AMB solids are made here in the USA? Maybe some of that cotton that we grew on our farm, that was ginned locally (Scroll down on that link to see the gin.) went into my own quilt block!
Mississippi has some interesting sites to see and things to do.
Explore the Natchez Trace – A Unique Journey from Natchez to Nashville.
The Tupelo Automobile Museum has the largest selection of classic cars east of the Mississippi River.
The Dentzel Carousel in Meridian brings back memories of days gone by.
Spring Pilgrimages in Natchez, Aberdeen, Holly Springs, and of course Columbus where I get to volunteer with hand quilting.

I really like all 3 blocks. So is #3 the one you are going to send to be put into the final quilt?
I have been enjoying Pythia tour so much that I am thinking if possibly making a license plate quilt. I love yours and I would love to visit the forest
wonderful interpretations of the actual license plate! and i've never been to mississippi, so it would be a new adventure to visit!
My family and I enjoy hiking to see the scenery in new places. We've never been to Mississippi so it looks like we need to add that to our list!
Lovely license plates! You did a great job. I have traveling in my blood, and would love to visit a new to me state like Mississippi, see all the historical places as well as the beautiful mountains.
Hi Julia, No, I've never been to Mississippi (but always loved spelling it with the crooked letter, crooked letter, humpback, humpback jingle). LOL! Anyway, I'd love to visit you (and your state)...maybe I could come with Barbara! :)
I visit Mississippi all the time. My dad and stepmom live in Pass Christian! I love it on the Mississippi Gulf Coast. And I am going to make your block for them.
Mississippi is one of the few states I haven't visited. I'd to see the Petrified Forest, Rowan Oak and some of the historical sites.
I love your design!! Beautiful! I would like to visit because it looks beautiful there.
Julia your license plates / post cards came out beautifully! Love your designs and stitching, and thanks for sharing the free tutorial with us. I always dream of Mississippi when I listen to a song by Charlie Pride "Roll on Mississippi". I would love to roll on down the Mississippi on a steam boat and take in the Southern hospitality. Thanks for the Happy Thoughts!
While I have been to Mississippi it was just a quick hop, jump through. I so wanted to get off of the interstate and see more. Especially during the spring when the flowers are blooming.
I love all of the blocks! I would love to visit Mississippi, it's such a pretty state.
We would visit because we are joyriders. We plan to drive around the country. Love all three of your plates. Very pretty!
I loves all three of your blocks but I think the third one is my favorite.
I have been to Mississippis so I would love to take it all in and visit you too.
Kathy
I love your first license plate block! I love to visit pearl, ms and go watch the Mississippi braves play! Thanks for the chance!
I lived in Biloxi, MS, for 12 years, when my husband was in the Air Force. My girls grew up there, and we have some very dear friends who are still there. Mississippi is so very special to me for the people, the culture, the ties I have to it. And to have you there makes it even more special! I love reading about your life there! Someday, I would LOVE to visit you!
Would like to see Biloxi and the area where Elvis grew up.
syvisser@gmail(dot)com
I have a dear friend from Mississippi and would love to visit and see where she grew up.
My husband grew up in Mississippi and I have been there many times. I would visit again to see once more the places and people from his past.
What lovely blocks! I love the south but have not been to Mississippi! It would be fun to visit and do some hiking and canoeing and visit the historical venues! thank you!
Your block is wonderful. I would love to visit Mississippi, and of course it is to visit you.
Great block.
suebennett1975@gmail.com
I loved watching the progression of your design ideas, Julia! Very interesting. I have lived in MS for just over six years, but I have still not visited many places. If I came to see you, I think I'd spend all day looking at your fabric and quilts!
What beautiful blocks! I have never been to Mississippi, but would love to meet you! What a talented lady! On my bucket list is to cruise the Mississippi River on a riverboat, so once in the south, make the most of exploring the areas! Have a great day! Donna (chavesdm@msn.com)
I would love to someday tour the deep south including Mississippi. Other than spending an hour or two in Miami Intnl Airport the farthest south I've been is the Smokey Mtns in North Carolina. The license plate block quilt and tour is such a great intro for AMB cottons, they are really beautiful. I recently bought a yard of the light yellow to try it for wholecloth hand quilting and love the way it needles.
I love how you came up with your design, how you thought through the process and what gave you inspiration for your color choices. What a wonderful license plate to compliment Mississippi! Great job! Also an amazing tour. I am going to keep blogging you! Thank you!
I've already been to Mississippi.
The Natchez Trace is beautiful at all times of the year, even laden in snow. The car museum in Tupelo will astound you, even if you are not a car buff you can dream about living in the era of each of these lovely cars. Some of the best State Parks In the nation are in MS, and the Civil War sites and Vicksburg Natl. Military Park are certainly points of interest.
It is sad that residents of a state often don't visit the attractions available.
Julia, each of your Mississippi blocks are terrific, but I do really like the last one.
Barbara, Iuka
Love your blocks! I am from Pennsylvania, and would like to visit someday!
Beautiful plates. Thanks for sharing your process. I have not been to Mississippi but would love to visit.
We are 'transplants' from northern Illinois. We have been here almost five years and are still exploring this beautiful state. Our next stop will be to the Gulf Coast ! We love the PEOPLE of MS, the cotton fields, forests, historic mansions and other architecture, etc., etc., etc.! I love the yellow pine trees on the lighthouse license plate. Your creativity is an inspiration to all quilters.
I've never been to Mississippi, but hope to visit there someday. Nice work on your license plate blocks! Thanks for sponsoring this stop on the blog tour.

Good morning, Julia
I have been a faithful reader of your blog for about a year and I just love your art quilts. The 3rd license plate that you made is my favorite. Your wonderful "S"s in Mississippi make the entire project stand out.
I just made my first trip through Mississippi in March, when I came from northern Wisconsin to visit my son in Birmingham. I usually drive another route, but I was so happy to be able to see some of the beauty of your state.
I love your monthly quilt guild meetings and your comfort quilt get togethers. It reminds me that no matter where we live, there are people doing good for others. Blessings on your day!

I've been to Mississippi several times, lovely state.
Yes I'd love to come to Mississippi to visit you! I really love all your blocks.
I would like to visit Mississippi. Could I join you for your volunteer quilting? I belong to a group here that volunteers to quilt for the public each month at a botanical garden. It's so much fun! I would also like to ride the Denzel Carousel.
I like Go Mississippi III. That lavender just makes everything stand out and be noticed! I have always dreamed of a river boat ride from up/down the mississippi, stopping at all the plantations and historical attratactions along the way. I love the south!

Love your Mississippi block. My husband's a history buff, so we'd love to follow the Natchez Trace one day. Thanks for the chance to win.
I don't think I've ever been there, but I'd love to, if only to meet some awesome quilty people!
I live in MS and love it here on the Gulf Coast. You did a fabulous job on the block and made up Mississippians proud!
I enjoyed your blocks, how creative. We recently vacationed in Mississippi and drove the scenic highway 90 so many pretty sites and the way the trees were revived by being carved into the beautiful animals was amazing. What Katrina tried to destroy the wood carvers made beautiful again.
nroot@lycos.com
I have really enjoyed watching your creative process unfold over the last few weeks! Makes me want to try one of My own -- maybe two, since I have two home states :) LOVE your blog!!
I'd love to come to Mississippi some day to see the pines and the coast.
I'd love to visit Mississippi and see the scenery!
Love your license plate. Very cool.
You did a great job! I recently saw a program on CNN about Mississippi with Anthony Bourdain "Parts Unknown" and it was very educational and interesting. I think I would like to visit Mississippi for the entertainment and the food!
I live on the MS Gulf Coast--love it here! Your block is really pretty! I need to try it.
These blocks are terrific! I have donor plates from Nevada on my car, because I received a new gift of life when I got a kidney transplant. I went to DMV to get plates, and they grabbed one that had my date of transplant as the numbers! I definitely want to make one. Not as good as yours, but thanks for the motivation!
Fun to see the progression on your block. Mississippi is a beautiful state, and I would like to visit the Gulf Coast again (I visited as a young single person years ago) - this time with my whole family. Thank you for the giveaway opportunities!
I would love to revisit Longwood, the antebellum home that was never finished. I was fascinated with the mansion after taking a tour on family vacation as a child.
I love all three of the blocks!I would love to go to Mississippi - would love to see the river and I always love to see the trees!

Your block is fabulous - maybe the best I've seen. The periwinkle is perfect!!! Great job.
Julia, Congratulations on your beautiful license plate block! You make Mississippians proud, even if we're transplanted Texans. I love our state, and you are a good representative of the charm and friendliness of it.
I like all of your license plates. Describes Mississippi exactly. I have never been to your state. I live in Sonora, CA where my city is called the foothills because of all the beatuiful trees. Thank you for being a part of the AMB Blog Tour and giving us the chance to win either one of your giveaways.

I have heard the river cruises on the Mississippi are great. Don't know any details at all, but would love to look into it for vacation, lol!
I've been to Tupelo but would LOVE to road trip through more of the state. Thanks for sharing your blocks!
I have never been down south. I would love to road trip through Mississippi to go to the quilt shops and antique stores.
Love the embroidery work in your block! the letters came out perfect! I'd love to see the coast of Mississippi. I love to drive and take trips and have to get down your way!
tsvande@gmail.com
All three blocks are lovely, Julia! But I especially love the periwinkle background, great choice!! (And I'm so glad I'm not the only one who went through a ton of ideas before finalizing a license plate block!! :-)
Hugs from Texas!
I like your "plates". Very pretty! I have been to Mississippi several times and have always enjoyed it.
We're actually planning a trip with friends to Biloxi this summer!
You are so creative with your blocks, I love them all. I would love to visit your beautiful state.
I was in Mississippi once as a 10 year old since we lived in Tennessee and we just wanted to say we had been there. Drove barely over the state line.
Love these Mississippi blocks! I live in MS so I get to enjoy the "beauty of the south" everyday.
Truly enjoyed reading your journey to create the final block. Very creative. I would visit and do the Natchez to Nashville tour. Sounds great.
Oh they are all gorgeous! Love the detail you put in them!
I love your plates! They are all amazing. I have been to Natchez, MS and driven on part of the Trace. I would love to come back and ride part of it on my bike!
To see the car museum and Mississippi River up close.

I would like to visit your small towns, the coast and the pines, just soak up some quiet Southern time. I liked all 3 plates but think the 3rd is my favorite of the designs. The "S'es" are wonderful.
I love your creativity with this plate. I know I would enjoy traveling the Natchez Trace. It looks beautiful.
I really like your license plate. I would like to visit your state and take paddle boat on the Mississippi River.
I don't need to visit Mississippi; I just have to step outside my front door. My hubby and I live in Columbus. :)
YES, YES, YES, I would love to come visit you. I love Bolouxi but hate to gamble. lol That is fabric money that goes in the slot machine. NOPE can't do that. But I would love to do the old fashion Quilting Bee with all the ladies around the frame hand quilting.

Love Mississippi seafood. Thanks for the chance to win.
Like your interpretations of all 3 license plates. I live in Ms but I would like to visit with you.
Love your block. I may make one for my granddaughter who went to college at Ole Miss. She would love a pillow. I visited Mississippi many times while she was in school there. Lovely state!
Love your block! ny husband would definitely love to visit the Tupelo Auto museum;I would like to see the country.
Nice block! My husband is from MS.
Stunning blocks! Looks like beautiful country. Dora G. ladyhawk201@hotmail.com
I love your license plates. I visited the northwest edge of your state when my daughter lived in Memphis. Very pretty state.
I have not had the pleasure of visiting Mississippi. I would love to come visit you and maybe volunteer with the hand quilting. I love to hand quilt.
Mississippi looks like a beautiful state to visit. Great job on your blocks!
Mississippi is one of the 5 states that I haven't had the pleasure of visiting yet. I need to plan a trip to swing through Mississippi and Alabama!
I'd like to see Mississippi as a tour of the southern states, I'm British, now living in NC, so the whole US is fresh and new to me, and a massive cultural learning curve ;)
My plan is to visit al 50 states. So far I have been to about 30. Mississippi is still on the too do list. Thanks

Years ago my sisters-in-law took a trip to Natchez and had a great time. I was too new to the family to get invited but I enjoyed their stories and want to go myself
Your design for the license plate is lovely. We have not visited Mississippi and I could visit quilters fabric shops and DH could go to the car museum. Thank you for the giveaway. maryellen1304@hotmail.com
I've never been to Mississippi and that's all the reason I need to want to visit!
I would love to explore the coast of Mississippi. We have only driven through on our way to Texas.
Mississippi I and II were pretty, but Mississippi III is a standout!!! Love the way you did the water at the bottom. And when I lived in West Helena, Arkansas, we used to go across the bridge to Clarksdale, MS, which had a restaurant with the best chinese food I've ever had. We went there a lot when we lived there!
Wow, your Mississippi plate is awesome!! Haven't been to Mississippi yet, but definitely on my 'to do' list. Thanks for the giveaway. info {at} cocoplumbeachhouse {dot} com.
love these hops, thanks
Thanks for sharing your 3 blocks--they are all pretty and appealing. Mississippi is one of the few states I haven't visited, but would love to see Holly Springs for the hummingbird migration, and many historical sites.
If I were to visit Mississippi I would like to go to Vicksburg and other homes of the Delta Blues.
Your block is beautiful. I'd like to come visit you and go to the hand quilting. I feel like I would probably learn a lot!
I have been to Mississippi and really enjoyed my visit.
meandyou1974@sbcglobal.net
Love your block!
Fantastic block. I've never been to Mississippi but would love to come just to explore a new to me state!
I met my husband when we were at Keesler AFB, MS. Love your blocks.
Love your MS license plate quilt ideas! I lived in MS for 14 years and I got to enjoy much of the history there. I am proud to claim many Columbus, MS quilting friends.
Iowa here - your block is beautiful - love the applique, someday I'll learn how to applique, but not today : )
What pretty license plates you created. I would love to come to Mississippi. It looks so pretty!
tweetyb936@aol.com
I have a niece who lives in Mississippi and she has a little boy who I've never met. That's why I'd like to visit
I adore Mississippi! Would love to come see your shop. Stargal714@yahoo.com
I've never been to Mississippi, but if you have pine tree, coast line, and magnolias, I'm in! I'm a west coast line baby and need lots of pine trees around to feel right. Your block is beautiful and I hope I can make it up half as pretty. thank you for sharing with us on the hop.
I would love to visit Mississippi and see the state where my paternal grandfather's family lived in the 1800's.
I would love to visit Mississippi just to experience the Southern charm! I've heard a bit about Natchez, so maybe I'd start there. I grew up singing the song on spelling Mississippi and I still spell right to this day if I sing it out first! Thanks for the giveaway!
tdkcarpenoctem@hotmail.com
I love your designs for the license plate. Block #1 appeals to me the most.
I have spent time in Mississippi and it's a great state. I love Natchez and the Natchez Trace and the history of the entire state is so wonderful. The Visitors Center when you enter Miss from Alabama is outstanding and gives a great feel of the State's hospitality!

Well, I live in Minnesota, where the mighty Mississippi river starts with just a trickle...so I'd love to come down and see what it looks like where it (almost!) ends.
I have never been to Mississippi, however I'd like to visit there someday. I understand it's a beautiful state. Cyndy Knapp
cknapp3626@sbcglobal.net
Wow! Three Mississippi blocks and they are beautiful. I have never been to Mississippi but would love to visit there sometime. If only to experience the countryside and the people that live there.
I love your license plate block! I've never been to Mississippi and don't know much about it. But I do like to visit historical sites.
My goal is to visit every state and I haven't been to Mississippi yet. I'm not sure where I would go, but I'm sure I would have fun!
I have never been to Mississippi but someday! I hear the gulf coast is wonderful. Love that some of the cotton you grew and ginned locally is in your block!
I like your block. Haven't been to Mississippi, so I guess I need to visit just to what's there. I'm guessin you have great gardens, which are my other favorite obsession.
Great job on your block. I've driven thru Mississippi and stayed once in Gulport. Pretty state.
I love your very beautiful block. I'd like to visit Mississippi in the fall when it's cooled off some. And I'd like to go up in the delta. I used to live in Georgia and had occasion to drive through Mississippi or visit various places at various times. But only once did I go up in the delta, to Greenville to visit some friends. And I just found it so interesting, I'd love to go back and explore that area some more.
Would love to come visit the Mississippi Delta country... listen to some Blues.... :)
I've been to Mississippi a few times and have loved the weather and the people. I'd love to visit again with more time to tour what your great state has to offer. Thanks for the fun giveaway and your blocks are so cool!
Well, I am glad this is one state I don't have to visit since I LIVE in and LOVE Mississippi (M, I, crooked letter, crooked letter, I, crooked letter, crooked letter, I, hump back, hump back, I). Love your license plate and you did a splendid job representing our great State!!
Beautiful work, Julie! Fun to learn more about Mississippi and your design thought process. All three license plates are fabulous, but the pop of the periwinkle in the final version is very unexpected and I just LOVE the added pop of color. You did a fine job representing Mississippi.
I know I would golf there when I can't here (Wisconsin).
I've heard a lot about southern hospitality and I'd like to try some.
Your blocks are very nice. Thanks for the chance.
I have been a Mississippi Resident for 5 1/2 years. Mississippi People are very friendly. As for places to go, my favorites are the Civil War Sites. So much interesting history in this State. The Vicksburg National Military Park is a must see. Donna H @ bjinkymom at yahoo dot com .
I would love to visit Pass Christian as we have friends living in Mississippi.
I'd visit Mississippi just for the magnolias; they are so beautiful. I'm sure I'd love visiting. I like every block you made.
I like ALL your blocks - especially the first one. I'd like to visit simply because I've never been. Plus I like southern food and the laid back attitude.
Will you have a difficult time choosing which block to send in? I would! They are all really pretty and I love your magnolia. I think its pretty awesome that MS followed LA since we're neighbors. In fact, I've been to all the places you mentioned...several times on the Trace.
My husband visited Mississippi in March and was impressed. I would like to see the things he talks about. Your blocks are very pretty.
I like your versions better than the real tag. The state ought to contact you about designing for them.
Very cool plates. I would love to visit Mississippi, as my daughter has a very good friend who lives there. My daughter and I would love to pay her a visit one day.
I've never been - it would be a great adventure to visit someplace new!
I'd like to see your namesake river, of course!
Of course, the reason that I want to come to Mississippi is to visit you and to soak up some of your inspiration. Thanks!
I love all three blocks. I was in Biloxi after Hurricane Katrina struck and I'd love to go back to see how the city looks today.
I love magnolias - and all 3 of your license plate versions!
Mississippi sounds very pretty.
I love your quilt tags as I have been calling them...all three of them are wonderful, but I think my favorite is the last one...I would love to come visit a quilt shop I heard about that an elderly man runs there...and it would be great to come visit you and see all your wonderful quilts in person...I am always inspired by your posts...have a blessed day and thank you for the chance to win some wonderful fabric...
Would love to visit Mississippi- especially the gulf region. Thanks for a chance to win!
Love your block! I've been to Mississippi many times; I just live down the road in Tennessee!
Very nice block!
Beautiful block. I would like to visit Mississippi because it always warmer there than here in northern Wisconsin!
I'd love to see the magnolia's. I had a friend describe them to me and I just think it would be cool to see.
I'd come visit just to say I'd been to the m-i-s-s-i-s-s-i-p-p-i state ;)
Great block! I've been through Mississippi quite a few times. In fact I was there this past Tuesday on my way home from visiting two of our granddaughters. I would love to visit the car museum in Tupelo, it sounds interesting. Thanks for the giveaway.
I love magnolias! Your block is beautiful. I would love to visit Mississippi for the beautiful gardens and lush foliage!
I love all three blocks. You really put a lot of effort into this project. I would love to visit Mississippi to see the magnolias in bloom and I absolutely love to listen to those beautiful Southern accents.
I really think you did a wonderful job on your license plate. I have been through Mississippi on my way to Florida and had some wonderful barbeques.
Your blocks are Awesome! Would love to visit Mississippi some day!! And if only to see you...and talk quilty things over tea!!! :)
I love your block with the magnolia. I have visited Mississippi several times and it is just beautiful. I follow on bloglovin. crystalbluern at onlineok dot com
Thank you so much for the giveaway! sarah@forrussia.org
Would like to visit Mississippi when the Magnolia trees are in bloom. Naturally I would want to visit quilt shops too.
Oh I would love to come visit you but I want to come in the spring to see the dogwoods, magnolias, azaelas & all the other spring flowers. This Texas panhandle girl doesn't see many blooming trees.
Of course I would visit you if I came to Mississippi. I love to make new quilting friends.
I have driven through Mississippi several times and would love to go back and spend more time seeing all it's beauty!!
I've heard Mississippi is beautiful. I'd love to go see it.
I love your block....in fact I love all 3 of them. lol
I have visited Mississippi, but would love to come again. Any chance you will have instructions available for Mississippi 1 & 2 ?
I am enjoying the AMB blog tour, I've found lots of new quilt bloggers with lots of great new ideas! Thanks for participating!
Jenna@theoutspokenyam.com
I've never been to MS but it holds a fairytale-like fascination for me- teeming with history!
Mississippi. Driven through your beautiful state but haven't had time to properly visit. Love your blocks.
I love your block! My only time visiting your state it was too hot for me but I would be willing to come again maybe in April not Aug the next time. I do love flowers.
All three of your blocks are awesome - thanks for sharing them! I have been through Mississippi several times on my way to and from Florida for college and later to visit my sister - but if I were to visit today it would be to see my old boss and his family. They are such awesome folks.
I grew up in Tate County in Senatobia and yes, I remember going to the local cotton gin when I was a little girl. Thank you for the pattern and give away.
Your plate blocks are great. And this blog is so interesting . . . I'm learning tons of new information about our states!
Hubby got his MS at Southern Miss, I only visited once, but thanks for the invite to come back.
Why visit Mississippi? Because I've never been there! Thanks for sharing.
I am an avid reader and have wanted to visit Mississippi since I read about the Natchez Trace in books by Greg Iles.
A beautiful plate! I would love to see the Mississippi river and take a boat tour down it, also visit some historical places. Loved looking through your blog, Thanks!
Mississippi looks like a great place to visit. I have never been there,
All the plates look great. I see the link is for pattern #3.
I liked the first block you made. I drove through Mississippi on my way to Florida a few years ago.
I would like to come to Mississippi to see where my dog, a Blackmouth Cur came from. She, sadly, had to be put down earlier this month. Had her for almost 14 years and she came to us from Lumberton Mississippi!!
Love your license plate for Mississippi. All three versions were cute.
All three are great, but your #3 is beautiful! I have lived in MS for a short time, and you're right, it's a great state.

I would like to visit Mississippi because I have never visited your state before. Love your license plate! Great job!
Luann716@hotmail.com
I would like to see Mississippi. It sounds like a beautiful state. thanks for sharing your license plate ideas.
My college roommate and more recent friends are from Mississippi, so I would like to see their worlds.
I would probably look you up as well since I am a people person. I also would keep making several possibilities for the plate!
What great blocks! I can see why you needed different versions. I haven't yet visited Mississippi, but would like to one of these days. Maybe I'll take a boat ride down the river and visit all the states along the way. =)
I've been to MS in the past to some of the gaming facilities and to go birdwatching. Beautiful state.
Thanks.

I would love to come to Mississippi to spend a week with my sister Julia Graber and quilt all week.
I've never been east of Colorado. Vicksburg would be cool and so would the car museum. I would be really excited just to travel more states.
Would you cook some southern food for us if we visited? I've heard it's amazing.
reillyr2(at)hotmail(dot)com
Love the elegance of your block, it really does look a lot like the original.
Great blocks and great inspiration. I just like to travel, and would love to visit some plantations, and see cotton growing. Thanks.
I love all 3 of your blocks. I would love to visit Mississippi, only had a couple of train rides "Through" Mississippi. I think not in the summer time though, from what I hear it gets way too hot and humid for my tastes. Winter might be the perfect time to visit.
I would like to visit Mississippi because it is a place I have never been! I have always wanted to do a tour of the southern states, it is something on my bucket list!
Wow, Mississippi is on my list of states to travel to try some different food! Also just because I just love to spell the m=name out loud! Ü M I S S I S S I P P I!
Andrea.mccoleman@gmail.com
Love your block. Have never been to Mississippi, but hope to someday.
I'm embarrassed to say that the furthest south I've been is Kansas, so Mississippi would be a good place to start since I lived on the Mississippi River for 17 years.

I have been to Mississippi a long time ago, and remember it to be a beautiful place to visit in the summer time. You did a great job with your blocks too…so colorful!
I have been to your wonderful state many years ago. When I was a kid we drove our motorhome from MN to the gulf coast on Christmas vacation. We tied a small pine tree to the bumper and when we got there put it on a picnic table and decorated it! All the locals thought it was hilarious!!
I would enjoy the classic car museum.
seamstress2@roadrunner.com
I've visited Mississippi on many occasions as well as traveled through seeing different areas we hadn't seen before. Love going to the Gulf Coast but always sad to see any damage done by hurricane's. Great block!
WOW, love your blocks! I think the 1st one is my favorite.
I'd like to visit Mississippi for the Magnolias and the coast.

Oh wow, I love all of your blocks!! I'd love to visit Mississippi to see the beauty and the history. I can only imagine some of the gorgeous homes there would be to gawk at ;)
